From beginner to hire-ready — 7 Projects Including a Job Interview

Each project layers a new designer skill and adds a real-world deliverable to your portfolio.

You step into a simulated remote internship. It feels like starting a new job — you open a chat (think Slack), meet your team, get briefed on a project, and start working. Your AI colleagues give you tasks with real ambiguity. You create actual work samples, receive constructive feedback, iterate, and build a portfolio of work that demonstrates what you can actually do.

What Students Are Posting

"The best part was the shift in mindset — learning how to defend every design decision using a Problem → Solution → Impact framework and thinking through the 'messy' parts of UX like edge cases and cognitive load." — Yousef Alasir, May 2026
"It's an amazing internship simulation and an amazing opportunity to grow your skills." — Fatima Alyassin, Feb 2026
"This is a wonderful course for beginners. It allowed me to complete the course in my own time." — Kartik Bande, Dec 2025
"It's a way to practice useful UX skills while getting personalised feedback." — Ilan Mach, Mar 2026
"The course helped me land a junior graphic design role, where the employers were happy to see I had UX experience." — Pavithra, Junior Designer

Not just a badge. Real artifacts.

You finish the internship with three things: plenty of portfolio material, a signed reference letter, and a completion certificate.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is GWEN?

GWEN is an AI-powered virtual internship platform where you work on realistic projects with AI teammates and clients. You'll complete real-world work — like conducting user research, creating wireframes, and presenting findings — and build portfolio-worthy projects that mirror what junior UX designers actually do on the job.

How is this different from YouTube tutorials?

YouTube teaches you concepts. GWEN gives you practice. Instead of watching someone else design, you're making decisions, getting feedback, and iterating — just like in a real job. Plus, you're learning how to use AI tools in your workflow, which most tutorials don't cover.

Is this a course or a bootcamp?

Neither, really. It's closer to a virtual internship. Instead of lectures and assignments, you work on real-world project briefs with AI teammates. Think of it like hands-on work experience — not a sit-and-watch course.

Who is this for?

This is for anyone looking to break into UX design — career changers, recent grads, self-taught designers, or anyone who wants hands-on experience with modern AI tools. You should have some prior UX knowledge (from studies or self-teaching) and be ready to learn by doing.

How long does it take to complete?

You can work at your own pace — there are no deadlines. Most people complete the internship in 3–6 weeks, depending on how much time they dedicate.

How much does it cost?

The job interview is completely free — no credit card required. Once you complete it, your 7-day trial begins and you get full access to every project. If you'd like to keep going after the trial, unlock the full internship for a one-time $79 payment and get lifetime access to any future projects we add.

Are there any hidden fees?

Nope. $79 is the full price. No subscriptions, no upsells. You get lifetime access to all current projects and any future ones we add.

Will you add more projects in the future?

Yes! We're planning to add at least 4 more projects, likely many more. If you purchase the $79 plan, you'll get lifetime access to all future projects at no extra cost.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. If you're not happy with the paid projects, email us within 14 days of purchase for a full refund. No questions asked.

How does the AI coaching work?

You'll work with AI teammates who guide you through each project. They'll give you tasks, review your work, ask clarifying questions, and provide feedback — just like real colleagues would. They're supportive but won't just hand you the answers.

Do I need to know how to use AI tools?

Most people have used AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude, but we'll teach you workflows and prompts specifically for UX work. You'll also learn how to use dedicated UX AI tools like Stitch and UX Pilot through hands-on practice.

Is there a deadline for each project?

No deadlines. This is self-paced. You can take as long as you need on each project. Some people knock out a project in one sitting; others spread it over a few days.

What projects will I work on?

You'll work on real-world UX projects across different industries — like redesigning an app onboarding flow, conducting user interviews for a fintech startup, or creating a design system for an e-commerce site. Each project simulates working with a real client and team.

Is there a community I can join?

Yes! When you sign up (even for the free trial), you'll get access to our WhatsApp community. It's a space to ask questions, share your work, and connect with other learners.

Can I do this on my phone?

No. Proper UX work needs screen real estate — you need to work on your laptop. Most UX tools work best on a larger screen, and you'll have a much better experience that way.

Will I actually build something for my portfolio?

Yes! Every project results in deliverables you can showcase — research reports, wireframes, prototypes, presentation decks. You'll have portfolio pieces that demonstrate hands-on UX work.

Will this help me get a job?

It depends. This gives you hands-on practice and portfolio work, but it won't guarantee a job. What it will do: teach you how to work like a UX designer, give you projects to talk about in interviews, and show employers that you can use AI tools effectively — something many teams value now.

Do I get a reference letter?

When you complete the internship, you'll receive a reference letter that you can use when applying for jobs or adding to your portfolio.

Can I add this to my LinkedIn?

Absolutely. You can list it under Experience (as a virtual internship) and link to your portfolio projects. You can also write LinkedIn posts about what you built, which helps with visibility.

Can employers see my work?

Yes. Everything you create is yours. You can share your research reports, wireframes, and prototypes with potential employers, add them to your portfolio site, or discuss them in interviews.
